"That won't be necessary," Yao Tang cut in. "I'm not here to eat. Just say what you want to say and be done with it."
Xu Xuan sighed inwardly and made to leave again, only to be stopped by Young Master Lu once more.
This time, he sounded angry. "Did I say you could go? Are you trying to disobey me again? Or is it that you want my men to teach you how to be obedient?"
"I… I'll go and fetch your order."
Lu Qing glanced at his watch and sneered at Xu Xuan. "I'll give you three minutes. If you aren't back by then, you won't be working here anymore, do you understand?"
"Yes, Sir."
"Off you go, then."
Xu Xuan sprinted down the stairs and put the order together in record time before darting back to the private room. Lu Qing was staring at his watch when she arrived.
Xu Xuan was panting as she set the plates on the table, then she stepped back and waited for further instructions.
